Brewers Choice Awards 2024
We’re incredibly proud and absolutely delighted to share the news that we’ve been shortlisted in TWO categories at this year’s Brewers Choice Awards!
Firstly, our beautiful Travel Poster series is up for Branding of the Year! As a range of beers which are released in cask alone, this feels extra special – you’re hopefully all aware by now how absolutely vital we consider cask beer to be as part of our past, present and future, as well as hugely important to our culture and heritage more widely, and the Travel Poster series really demonstrates how much this means to us (you can read more about this range here). And arguably, pumpclips on a bar don’t always get their fair share of time in the spotlight compared to cans, so it’s especially nice to have an extra reason to shout about them! Congratulations to our designer James for creating such a stand-out series – there’s so much hard work and research that goes into each and every design, and it’s great to see that recognised.
It’s also particularly humbling to have been shortlisted in the Branding of the Year category as we brought this award home in 2022, for our Funk Dungeon series… and talking of the Funk Dungeon, the second nomination is for our mixed ferm master Jim Rangeley, who has been shortlisted for the Brewer of the Year Award! A phenomenal achievement and a wonderful recognition of his talent and passion as he comes up to celebrating a decade of working in the beer industry, nine years of which have been right here as part of Team Abbeydale. Jim has been shortlisted alongside Brian from Northern Monk and Alex at Full Circle, so not only is the standard incredibly high, it’s also brilliant to see the northern powerhouse in full force too!
Judged by an amazing panel of industry professionals, the Brewers Choice Awards are organised by the team behind the Brewers Journal. You can read more about the awards, and view the full shortlist, here.
It’s a huge honour to have made the shortlist (twice!!), and we can’t wait for the awards next month, which take place at the Brewers Congress in London… wish us luck!
